Cant repay Credit card quick enough

in Credit cards
I currently have £1200 on my credit card with no other debt.
I have a barclaycard and the intrest is seemingly high!
I can only afford to pay £100 back a month and was wondering if there was anywhere better to swap this too!
Thanks

As you already have a barclaycard you won't be able to get their balance transfer card so the next best is the MBNA at 0% interest for 20 months. You will have to pay a 2.5% fee though.0

Another option is to look at all your spending to see where you can cut back to increase the amount available to repay as well.

@2.5% it will cost you £30 to swop over to interest free
But keep paying £102.50 a month you will have it cleared in a yearlbm 11/06/12 dept total 11499.470
